Troubleshooting
Label all wires prior to disconnection
when servicing controls. Wiring
errors can cause improper and
dangerous operation. Always
disconnect power to the boiler before
servicing. Failure to comply could
result in severe personal injury, death,
or substantial property damage.
Never jumper (bypass) any device
except for momentary testing as
outlined in the Troubleshooting
chart. Severe personal injury, death,
or substantial property damage can
result.
Before troubleshooting:
1. Have the following items:
a.
Voltmeter that can check 120 vac, 24 vac, and
12
vdc.
b. Continuity
checker.
c. Contact
thermometer.
2. Check for 120 vac (minimum 102 vac to maximum
132 vac) to boiler.
3. Make sure thermostat is calling for heat and contacts
(including appropriate zone controls) are closed.
Check for 24 vac between thermostat wire nuts and
ground.
4. Make sure all external limit controls are installed
and operating.
Check the following:
1. Wire connectors to control module are securely
plugged in at the module and originating control.
2. Gas
pressures:
• Maximum: 14 inches w.c. (natural and LP) with
no flow (lockup) or with boiler on
• Minimum: 4 inches w.c. (natural), 8 inches w.c.
(LP) with gas flowing (verify during boiler
startup)
Check control module fuses
ALWAYS check control module fuses
before replacing control module or any
major components (blower, etc.). If one
of these fuses is blown, it can prevent the
control module or other components from
operating.
1. Turn OFF the power to the boiler at the external line
switch.
2. Remove
front
door/cover.
3. Remove the control module cover.
4. Inspect fuses F1, F2, and F3, see FIG 13-1 below.

5. The boiler is shipped with three (3) spare fuses in a plastic bag
provided with the unit.
6. If necessary, replace open fuse (F3 is .80 amps, F2 is 3.15 amps,
and F1 is 6.3 amps).
Note:
Fuses F1, F2 and F3 are all slow blow fuses.
Do not jumper fuse or replace with any fuse
except as specified. Failure to comply could
result in severe personal injury, death, or
substantial property damage.
7. Install control module cover and front door/cover after fuse
inspection.
8. Restore power to the boiler at the external line switch and
verify boiler operation (Section 10 - Start-up) after completing
boiler service.
